implied rights of access, it would be the delivery driver that would have to deal with that though?

would you get done for flytipping if you left a brand new fridge at someones door?

Try Criminal Damage.

The damage is not required to be permanent and so defacing property with paint or mud will still count as criminal damage

...There's not a grain of truth in any of this...

 

[littlespark]

I dread to think what these "friends" have done to you in the past if this is your revenge

It's the "intent" that matters...trust me, I used to be a lawyer!

Sounds to me like someone hasn't paid you and this is your revenge.

Ahh, those were the days when revenge was fun! 10 ton soft sand and 10 ton gravel to be tipped on the drive or 20 metal dustbins with lids, late night pizza deliveries, manure, taxis at 3am, heavy breathing down the phone, er oops I mean hanging up when someone answers.....

Not strictly true. Being reckless also counts towards criminal damage.

 

[pirate]

True, reckless counts, but all the examples given above were those of intent, not recklessness. The absence of mens rea will often excuse the action, but acting with wicked recklessness will, if proven, result in an equal conviction, if not more so...eg, discharge of firearms in a public place.
Fly-tipping should be a hanging offence...discuss.
